Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire School lunches....delivered.

Since the shut down our school kitchen has been open and serving breakfast and lunch meals to the kids.


Not sure how it works.....but I think you were supposed to sign up and then wait outside for someone to bring the food to you.


I assume its bag lunch types of things. Probably no soup!


We did not participate. We live out of town....and it seemed silly to drive in to "save" money on cafeteria food.



For what ever reason.....the district has decided to employ the buses and drivers in a school food program for all the rural kids.


They are going to be delivering food to your bus stop. Not just the kids in school......every child in the house hold.


Also, a teacher will be riding shotgun to help deliver food and to hand out and collect school assignments.


Its a weird....brave new world!

Shake their hand.

I wouldn't take it unless I really need it. Those people thoughts are in the right places, however i doubt they practiced social distancing when they made it.

news around here had one of them deals on the other day. a line of $40k SUV's in line for box lunches. people can't be expected to take care of their kids these days so somebody has to feed them.

Mmm beef strokinoff, made with the lovin hands of hairy mole lady

Thats what the old lady and I are discussing right now.

I grew up on ketchup sandwiches and warm hose water.

Kids these days are soft.

Same program here in W. Montana. I have 2 boys and we don't participate. My wife and I had em, it's my responsibility to feed em. All we do is enable people, and make them welfare beggars.

We grew up on The Mayonnaise Plantation in Georgia, didn’t know about ketchup till I was 16,17

...now we had catsup, so we had that goin for us

Did you call the school and tell them not to deliver to your place?

She musta worked at my HS too. She have scabs on her forearms from getting burned on the hot plates?

No, my wife is a teacher, and she relayed my sentiments to the principal. They are not stopping by.

You had bread ?

Remember the good old days, when people felt the LEAST they could do for their own kids was to feed them??

Milk, bread, peanut butter, a cheap box of cereal, and 7 cans of Chef Boyardee. You can feed a kid for LITERALLY $10 a week.

These folks spend more than that on cell phones, tattoos, and scratch off’s....

We did not ask for the meals.

From reading your posts Jim I know that your kids are taken care of. But there is a lot of kids due to poor parents or parenting that school lunches are the kids main meal of the day. In a lot of cases the only meal they get so let’s hope safety is being practiced

Flathead Valley schools has had a backpack food program for some years now delivering backpacks to "kids in need" on weekends. Like what Jim is talking about they're delivering to designated points around the valley now because of covid19. But yeah, in most cases the parents are being enabled to ignore they're responsibilities.

In Whitefish they have a summer program of free lunches they serve at the lake and other spots. Basically anyone can partake so vacationing Canadians, tourists, hobos et al enjoy free viddles at tax payer expense.

The schools are doing this in the Mpls/St. Paul area. Local government, ie - schools have progressive parents so reliant on free food that it is downright embarrassing. Not only that, but they are using school busses to deliver the lunches at arranged stops.

There is truth here. The problem is a lot of parents could feed their kids, but are too lazy to do it. I know several cases of this first hand. We have created a generation of beggars who expect and demand that someone else feed their kid. Doesn't take much money or time to make pancakes for 2 kids.

Our taxes have prepaid for those meals, there is nothing charity about what they are doing...
With the property taxes I have to lay out over in the Flathead every year and the bulk of it going to the schools, I should be getting lunch via over night mail from them while I am in Florida.....
